TIQUE Talks: The Business Podcast for Travel Advisors

249. Hot Take: Stop Making Training Programs

September 4, 2026·15 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Jennifer and Robin torch the idea that every agency needs its own homemade curriculum, pointing out that IATA rules and DMC basics don't change agency to agency no matter how "unique" you think your brand is. They call out the ego and scarcity mindset behind DIY training, explain why refusing to invest $500 in proper onboarding may be a sign you’re not ready to hire, and reveal the hidden cost of maintaining your own curriculum. If you want to scale, retain great advisors, and escape the hiring hamster-wheel, it’s time to invest in education that already works.Resources Mentioned In This Episode:Tique’s Course Suite Buying for an Agency or Team?
